I was fortunate enough to be one of Jack Sparrow's crew (the ones he picked up in Tortuga) in this movie and actually played a different role in the third movie, At World's End. You can even see me here and there during this reaction video. We filmed for a few months in Hollywood then went to the Caribbean for six weeks. When the movie premiered at the El Capitan Theater in Hollywood, it came as a total surprise to us to find they had included our names in the credits. (Extras - even featured extras - rarely get their names in the credits.) It was an absolute blast working on this movie and getting to know everyone on the crew. When I went back two and a half years later to do the third movie, almost all of them remembered me. Glad you enjoyed this movie, Dawn. As Johnny himself once said, "Isn't this the most fun you've ever had in your life?" It was!

Elizabeth's father is played by Sir Jonathan Pryce. In _Game of Thrones_ he played the High Sparrow. Johnny Depp's inspiration for Jack Sparrow's vocal and movement style was Keith Richards. _Davy Jones Locker_ is an old term for dying in the deep sea. When a sailor is lost at sea or a ship sinks it is said they went down to Davy Jones Locker. For a nice fight with a giant squid you should watch the 1954 adaptation of Jules Verne's _20,000 Leagues Under the Sea._ There are some great pirate movies from the Golden Age. I recommend _Captain Blood_ (1935), _The Sea Hawk_ (1940), and _The Master of Ballantrae_ (1953) all starring Errol Flynn.

@akiraunio5227

3 ай бұрын

The timber in a wooden rowboat has enough buoyancy that it actually will not sink even if there is no air pocket. With an air pocket it requires a lot of weight (from stuff that would sink on its own like metal or rocks) to pull that underwater. Since humans are pretty much same density as water (you can control whether you sink or float just with how much air is in your lungs), humans can not hold a wooden rowboat underwater. Wood will eventually sink, but it takes time to wood become saturated with water. And if the air pocket in the boat is about the height of human head (about 30 cm / 1 foot) the amount of weight to pull the boat underwater would be over 300 kg (650 pounds) when using barbells, aka solid metal objects, even on a small boat. As it was stated in a previous post, Mythbusters did a segment on this. But hey, that's Hollywood for you. Reality should not get in the way of entertainment.

The upturned boat wouldn't work, there's no way you'd be able to hold onto it. It would want to rise to the surface and rip from your hands. Diffference with a diving bell? Those were heavy as shit

I love that you mentioned the quality of the sound effects. Not many people notice or have the ear for those things, but it's one of my favorite aspects of movies. The sound design is these movies is world class.

Captain Barbossa knew how to find the other ship after they left the island that had the cursed treasure because he's a pirate. He has enough experience to know all he had to do was follow the direction of the wind. He also knows where Elizabeth lives, and figured that's where they were headed.

In the good old days, when an ocean voyage took months and months, a woman on a ship becomes VERY popular. This causes friction ( bad luck ) between the interested parties.

This girl's a riot!!! Love her reactions🤣🤣

It's funny that you said "It's a small world" during your commentary. Because "Pirates of the Caribbean" is based off of the Disneyland ride of the same name, and Disneyland also has a ride called "It's A Small World". 😂

Well, in their case it was easy to find them. Elizabeth was from Port Royal, her dad was the governor of that island. They were leaving Isla de Muerta so it was safe to assume they were going back to PR. Its a straight line, if you know you are faster than them, you will eventually catch up. As for real navigation, they used dead reckoning whichis an estimation that comes from your known position and the speed you are going with you can estimate with good accuracy how far you are from your point of origin. They used a tool called a sextant that could measure the angle between the horizon and an astronomical object like the Sun ( daytime ) or Polaris ( night ). From that angle they were able to calculate their latitude. It could also be used to measure horizontal distances between celestial object in order to calculate longitude. It's pretty amazing how accurately they were able to determine their position.

Theoretically, it could work. Air can be trapped that way. Divers have used it for a long time. But realistically, you'd have to carry the boat floating upside-down on the surface of the water. That much buoyant air would never succumb to being carried along the bottom of the water, unless you had a couple dozen cannonballs in your pockets, and the boat strapped under your armpits. Holding on with just your hands, walking nonchalantly along the sea floor with a boat full of air: a film-magic stretch of the truth. Breathable air in an upside down boat: yes. Specifically as illustrated in this film: not exactly. It's always more fun when you take something that's probable, and carry it to an improbable extreme: voila! Movie magic!

I can't think of more fun I've had seeing some one guessing so wrong so many times.😂😂

"I'm not gonna sing it all, mainly because of copyright" ... I'm dying 😂

The upside-down boat thing absolutely works. The way they float is that they are waterproof, so if you trap air underneath them it has no way to escape and thus stays in the boat. Try pushing an upside down cup into a dish of water, same thing.

The trick walking under that overturned rowboat would've been having enough weight to remain on the bottom, and the strength to hold onto that much trapped air. Could've been possible with just about half the air they showed and extra weights. This generation largely has forgotten how to use physical maps and charts! Davy Jones' Locker is an ancient metaphor regarding the place where drowned and lost-at-sea souls end up.

Okay I’ll explain the Black Pearl was Jacks ship. A mutiny happened and Barbosa took over the ship and crew and abandoned Jack on the island. The crew then went on to find the cursed treasure and they took it all. Wills farther Bootstrap Bill didn’t approve of Jacks abandonment and taking the treasure so to punish Barbosa and the crew he secretly gave a peace of the treasure to Will so Barbosa and crew would remain cursed. They didn’t realize until after killing Bootstrap that they needed his blood. When they found Elizabeth she lied about her name Barbosa thought they found one of Bootstraps bloodlines and they could lift the curse. At the end of the movie Will cut himself and dropped all the coins in the chest and his blood lifting the curse.

I love how she has to forcefully drop her accent to say “pearl”. 😂

24:20 "How do you find thing?" 😅 Way before Google Maps, they had the stars and sun (well, that's a star as well) and the planets to guide them.

Davy Jones is derived from the term Davy Jones’ Locker, a metaphor for the bottom of the sea, the state of death among drowned sailors and shipwrecks. Davy Jones is like the devil for sailors. Barbossa can’t be brought back from his corpse being given a coin. Someone has to take the coin directly from the chest to be cursed themselves. He for sure died. Bootstrap wouldn’t be dead because he was also cursed. But once the curse is lifted, he’d probably be crushed by the water pressure, or drown

Historically Davy Jones Locker is just a metaphor the final resting place for drowned sailors. As in the ship went down now the crew is in Davy Jones Locker. Yes it is in fact parts of Tortuga look exactly like the ride but my memory is from the 80's. No the compass does not point at the Black Pearl, not exactly. You will have to see more movies. Giant Squid? I think you mean 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Also a Disney movie and Ride. 😇

You were asking about how pirates can tell where they are at sea without a GPS or digital map? Its actually a real world skill of navigating using stars. Sailors, and specifically ship captains, would often study the positions of the constellations and star positions and movement (from the world turning) to determine which direction they are heading and what landmasses would be near based upon maps, a tool called a sextant, and a standard compass. Its actually really fascinating learning about.

The arival at Tortuga scene was takes from the ride at Disney. Then they made the ride to fit the film. Other scenes like Gibbs sleeping against the pig. Also, the theme is in the film Gladiator during the battle at the beginning. And Parley is where opponents meet in order to discuss something, especially how to end an argument or a war. Usually under a flag of truce.

This film is full of great actors and great writing. The opposing comedic relief of the pair of Redcoats and the pair of pirates are hilarious. Geoffrey Rush (Barbossa) was possibly the best pirate ever. They're more like guidelines anyway!

Depp modelled the accent and drunk style on The Rolling Stones Keith Richards. Richard plays Depp’s dad in a later excursion in the franchise.

You remember Davey Jones…after he left the locker he formed a boy band called “The Monkeys”!! The dog with the cell keys scene is actually from the Disney ride “Pirates of the Caribbean”. If you get a chance to go to the park and ride the ride you’ll see it…..Cheers

Jack walks wonky cause he's used to being on the sea where you are always rocking back and forth, so you eventually get used to that and walk fine on the sea, but when you return to land, your body feels like it's still swaying. It's called sea legs.

At 14:45, you are partly right. the part that doesn't work is them holding the boat down. They would need to be able to hold a couple thousand pounds in order to keep it underwater. However, if they could do that, it would actually create the air pocket you see in the scene.

Chestecles🤣🤣🤣

14:35 - That boat trick does actually work, but the boat has to be heavy enough so that it doesn't float up; so it's no easy feat either way.

Davy Jones's locker is a metaphor for the oceanic abyss, the final resting place of drowned sailors and travellers. It is a euphemism for drowning or shipwrecks in which the sailors' and ships' remains are consigned to the depths of the ocean.

I’ll explain how the coins work without spoiling anything for the next, so they got all the coins out and got cursed, but the reason Will turner wasn’t cursed was because he wasn’t the one who took the coin out, and the only way they could end the curse is to put all the coins back with a piece of their blood on it, so when they drowned bootstrap before knowing they were cursed, they couldn’t get his blood anymore, but Will turner was family so he had his blood, so that’s why they needed Will, to end the curse, so at the end when the monkey took a coin out, he was cursed but he actually cant revive barbossa that way because he can’t just give it away

This is the tale... *of TONY MONTANA!*

Air under the boat does work to trap the air. Except it would be hard to stay on the bottom and not float up.

The reason Barbossa and the Black Pearl could find the Interceptor in the middle of the movie is that Elizabeth still had the pendant and it was calling to them like in the beginning. Probably the best sailing movie ever is Master and Commander: Far Side of the World with Russell Crowe. It is one of the best movies you will see. You should queue that up!

"Davy Jones locker" is the old sailors name for Hell. Heaven was called "Fiddlers Green."

3:43 "Wait. How did you not see that sooner?" Because they're _mired_ in an unnatural _fog._

The way you initially pronounced "pearl" was so cute! Sounded how I would pronounce the word "peril"

The Caribbean islands are mostly grouped in a line. They generally knew where they were by keeping at lest one in sight. Finding another ship assumes they are also doing that. Finding an island by itself in the open ocean is much harder. You need maps/charts, a sextant, a accurate clock, a chip/common log, an be good at math. If someone has not mapped it, you would have to get lucky. "Island that cant be found, unless you know where it is." Finding a single ship in the open ocean would not be easy.

You pronounced "Pearl" extremely well. Davy Jones Locker is an old lore idea about a locker at the bottom of the ocean. I don't think it actually exists, but its a phrase from years ago to reference basically the depths of the ocean or just something that is so far below the ocean that no one can survive.

One of Johnny Depp's earlier movies has an incredible performance by him, but it was never really gotten much acclaim. It's called "Benny and Joon," and it features Mary Stuart Masterson & Aiden Quinn. It's a really sweet movie.

Davey Jones locker is a metaphor for the bottom of the ocean, its a general phrase in use outside of this story.

Davy Jones Locker is basically the bottom of the ocean, where drowned people go.

I've sailed a 36 foot yacht across the Atlantic.. so I can't agree that heading right out to sea is the worst thing one can think of. The Caribbean isn't nearly so small that you can see a fire from anywhere.. sailing from the windward isles to western Cuba is perhaps 2+ weeks sailing without stopping if the wind is optimal. But the islands are in a row so it isn't impossible to find someone if you have enough time and a few ships.

Another fun reaction. You are a joy to watch a movie with. When this came out it hit all of the right buttons. Every one likes a fun, romantic, action adventure, and one with a lighthearted spirit. Next, there had not been a well made big budget Pirate adventure in years. Now add young stars, an inventive Johnny Depp performance, and every Pirate movie theme for the parents and you have the makings of a blockbuster. But it was Johnny Depp and his quirky and funny portrayal of Captain Jack that captured the hearts and minds around the world.This performance made him an international celebrity and really typecast him to the public. He could no longer be an actor in character roles or small indie movies. He was Dor many years… Captain Jack Sparrow. He became rich, bloated, and a shell of who he once was. For him this became a blessing and a curse.

Best line in the movie is after Elisabeth accuses him of drinking rum for three days Jack responds with " Welcome to the Caribbean" ! Haha lol True that! Fun movie lots of action and pirates saying arrr... arrr...! Sorry no squid in this one maybe in the next movie!?!🐙. Great reaction Dawn 'Bootstrap' Marie!❤️💛

Dawn Marie, it’s your channel and you get to say pearl any way you’d like. Nothing wrong with being Scottish and having it your way.

She is highly invested in the squid lol

Dawn, after you’re done with Jack Sparrow, time for some Errol Flynn (The Sea Hawk and also Captain Blood)

You probably won't read this, but I'll leave it anyway, just in case. I *love* that you saw Will Turner and said "It's Legolas!" instead of "hey, Orlando Bloom." Now, on to Davy Jones' locker. It's sailors' slang for the bottom of the ocean. Like, the really deep parts where no one is going to recover stuff. Davy Jones is the slang term for the Devil, since it might catch the Devil's attention to speak of him directly. Kind of the way people come up with new slang words to avoid catching the KZread censors' attention. Sailors being really superstitious is not just a stereotype, it really was a thing. Lockers were locked chests where sailors would secure their belongings. So where would the Devil stash things he had claimed, to keep anyone else from getting at them? The depths of the ocean. I suspect the 2nd and 3rd movies were sketched out when they made this one, just in case people liked it, but I think they made this a standalone movie just to test how popular it would be. The 4th and 5th movies were definitely something they made up later, based on Johnny Depp's Jack Sparrow, not the Disney ride. Davy Jones and his locker are in the next 2 movies. Those movies are important to show that Will Turner did not just thoughtlessly kill his own Dad. Remember, Barbosa tied weights to Bootstrap Bill and sank him to the depths of the ocean...but Bootstrap Bill was just as cursed as the rest of them. As far as we know, he was just sitting there, at the bottom of the ocean until Will broke the curse. At which point, his own dad would have drowned. So the next 2 movies deal with that.

This movie was absolutely bloody brilliant. At one point you actually feel pity for Barbosa and his crew…. “I feel… nothin’! Not the wind in my face , nor the spray of the sea. Not the touch of a woman’s hand…” Chilling.

They could find other ships because ships traveled specific routes consistently due to the winds and currents. So the pirates would know beforehand that eventually a ship would come along a route. If they know when it left a certain place, they can then even predict when it should reach another point on that route, and then wait for them. Then people would sit way up high at the top of the mast in the crow's nest with a telescope (if they had one) to look for the tiny signs of sails on the horizon, maybe 20 miles away. They had to have very keen eyes.

One of the beauties about being scottish Dawn.....when we say pearl it sounds like Peril. Plus not being able to say purple squirrel

I love when blondes are very blonde lol 😅...great reaction...my mum is Scotish too i can hear the accent lol...Davy Jones Locker is the bottom of the ocean when u die at sea.

I would highly recommend going and researching pirate superstitions from history. Knowing the various superstitions will help you immensely with the next 3 Pirates films.

Jack's compass points to whatever you desire 👍

Have just bingewatched all seasons of Coupling, so seeing Jack Davenport as an authority as James Norrington in this kinda makes me giggle. :D Thanks for uploading! Greetings from Sweden

They knew where they were going cause they sail the oceans...it's called memorization. Having to use your brain and be spatially aware, being able to visualize objects and things in 3 dimensions in your mind.

14:35 "Ummm, that does not work. I had to think there. That doesn't work. No way." You are correct. Seawater has a density of roughly 64 pounds per cubic foot (or 1,024 kg per cubic meter). So if you had a boat the size shown in the movie upside under water it would have a buoyant force of around 3,000 kg (or 6,600 pounds) - it would simply go flying towards the surface with immense force unless the people holding it down weighed at least that much or more. So if the combined weight of Will and Jack is more 6,600 pounds, they could hold that boat underwater. Given that that's the combined weight of about 40 slender but fit men, the two of them had no chance to hold that boat down there.

I naively thought it might be possible, but your comment made me look it up and I found a paper by the University of Leicester Undergraduate Physics Journal, of all places, that agreed with your conclusion even though it disagreed with your numbers to some degree. Fascinating stuff. ^^

@kko7213 Yes, I was kind of approximating the size of that boat. A simpler way to think of it is this: Put the boat on the surface and fill it with weight until it sinks. One man? Two men? 10 men? Whatever it takes. That is the buoyancy of the boat. It takes that same weight to hold it underwater, too. And that boat looks more than large enough to stay afloat with just Jack and Will, so they couldn't possibly hold it underwater because it would rise up like a ballom and take them with it - they aren't heavy enough to hold it down.
